by Millard Floan on Okay so I can't be totally against a place that I went to with people who knew other people who knew the people manning the door; in other words my friends and I got in FREE bitchessss! For starters, I just cannot take too much of indoor smoking. When will Atlanta learn that there is more to night life than having non smokers leaving an establishment with second hand smoke filled lungs, ashtray influenced hair and clothes that reek of stagnant cigarette air?! I can't take much more of this Atlanta! Soon I'll just stay home with my friends and say F the Atlanta nightlife - that is until a ban is placed on being able to smoke indoors at public places. There is a little bar place/dance floor deal downstairs, but during the night that I went, I didn't see what was so great about it. Our group traveled back upstairs to dance and what not and I was approached by a guy that wanted to dance. On any other day I would have been happy to dance, but I was already under a time constraint as it was and declined. The best thing about Door 44 are the fans conveniently placed throughout the club and trust me when I say that they need them because the air doesn't flow well in there. This place is down the street from the Opera Nightclub so maybe on my next visit to my home town I'll stop in there. For now I'll just stick to my LGBT bars and nightclubs and save heterosexual dudes the heartache of only being able to look, but not touch lol! :P
by Vicky T. on WOW... Let's talk about the idiot service and bouncers here. We had reservations for bottle service for a birthday celebration. We were getting 6 bottles... We had 10 girls and 10 guys on the bottle service list. When we got there, they wouldn't let us in because there were too many guys on the list. Honestly, I have never seen people get rejected for bottle service because the quota for men vs women per bottle service group. Has anyone heard of that? Even in vegas... they allow all men groups to go in. We were all upset because this made the bday girl super upset. The bouncers refused to let us talk to the manager.... Oh well... they definitely lost a lot of money that night... 6 bottles? Come on! Plus all the drinks other people were going to buy that didnt want bottle service. We went down the street to temple and they were happy to take us... so we spent our money there. =) Never coming here again... nor will recommend this place to anyone.
by Dexter Mok on I felt like I was in some kind of surreal dream, in which I ended up at a table at Buddha Bar with a bunch of my work mates, sharing a huge bottle of vodka, and screaming at the top of my lungs. It had to be a dream, because how else would I have ended up in an enormous club where, in order to get in with a group, you have to stand in line and then pay nearly $300 for bottle service...and someone actually said "ok"? Is this my life? I have to admit that the sheer size of this club was impressive. The Buddha was SO big. The ceiling was SO high. I had fun, because I was with fun people. The environment was secondary to me. All I know was that I woke up the next day in my hotel in the same shirt that I wore out that night, facing the wrong direction on the bed. If this is your goal, Buddha Bar should do the trick. This is not, nor should ever be, my goal.
